I have the sneaking suspicion that Ireland might not draft a WR till later in the draft if we get Wallace. I do not agree with it, but I really think this Ireland's mind set.

yeah you could be right but Ireland knows his *** is on the hot seat.... I like Binns as a #4 guy. I mean unless we add 3 Staring receivers like I proposed in my sig of adding Mike Wallace, Cordarrelle Patterson, and Tavon Austin...... I would say Binns would be a lock on the 53

He had some plays that definitely got me excited... I don't know enough about him though to make a judgement on his future in the league.

I do agree with you that we won't be drafting a WR till the 3rd round. Just a hunch really but I believe they like some of the younger guys we have. Binns, Matthews etc... With us getting a WR in FA (this is a foregone conclusion for me) I think it is more advantageous for us to fill our other needs in the first 2 rounds. OL, CB, TE maybe DLine depending on how they view Vernon and what we do with Starks.

Assuming we get Wallace....I would be ok with not drafting a WR in the first two rounds but only if we draft a tight end very high. Thats also assuming we still had Hartline. We let him go then drafting receiver early becomes more important.

I believe that should be the plan but remember if we spend big money on Wallace and let to many of our own FA walk then we have holes 2 at CB, 1. At OT, 1 at DE plus needs at LB, G, RB.

Ireland knows that Phil in was hired to deliver a high octane passing offense. If that doesn't happen soon, Ireland will be fired. He will do everything possible to build around Tannehill this off season. That means landing 1 big name FA WR, and drafting 1 marquee WR and a 2nd good prospect WR. He is also probably looking for a good young TEif he can get one.

BInns has the size, speed, quickness, lift, wingspan and muscle to be a very good WR. But he has bad hands, so he is more of an air traffic controller than an NFL WR at this point. If he had developed the Bengals would not have let him go. Now he is in the process of bouncing around the league because every GM wants to roll the dice that the light will eventually come on for guys with that type of size and athleticism. IMHO, he is already better than Roberto Wallace, so I'd probably roll the dice one more season, but not at the expense of Rishard Matthews.

upside is #3 or #4 wr type stuff...id'd coverage pretty well while he was here when he got run in the games and sat down in voids...but against man he needs to show more...depending on how the offseason goes is probably looking at a 5th wr spot if we keep 5 and frankly he better get to work on his specials cause as things stand right now i would think marlon moore would beat him out as the 5th wr based on specials...i expect rishard mathews to pass him on the depth chart if he hasn't already in 2013

unless we blow it at the position this offseason i expect binns to have an uphill climb to make the 53...bring him to camp

Binns came in off the street and started playing right away. That says something.

Everyone just remembers the TD drop vs. NE therefore he sucks. Only time will tell. Its not like he had a full offseason with RT and co. so yes, give it some time. The dude can get downfield. I dont think we will rest on our laurels however becuase of Hartline and whether he is signed. i love some of the receivers in this draft, but if we add one in draft it most suredly will be Swope. He knows too much and is welker like.

If they get wallace why would he draft a receiver early for? they already have Binns, Bess, Matthews, Hartline(if he resigns) if does draft a receiver it should be stedman bailey.

we need to draft one because if you only add one explosive playmaker, and he gets injuried, where does that leave you? we need to go into the offseason with 2-3 new WR's. wallace/jennings, hartline, 1/2 drafted WR, bess, matthews.

Binns is one of those guys that has a ton of talent and potential, but never lives up to it for some reason. There always seems to be those that think they can do something to change him around and make this person a superstar, but it doesn't happen. I'm all for trying to develop guys, but when the guy fails to do so with numerous teams, you need to start making room for someone that can make that development to the next level.

If we get Wallace on-board, or Jennings for that matter, we need to draft two "stars" in the first 3 rounds, and one of them should be a TE....what combo? I´d go for Eifert/Bayley, but the possibilities are endless...Trading down to the early 20´s is my absolute favorite scenario, therefore giving us another 2nd , therefore we can target TE,Oline, CB, WR, DE, ILB,(no particular order) and that´s just the first 3 rounds!!!

His big and athletic, but I didn't care for his drops. For a 4th or 5th WR, I'd rather have a guy who will catch the dang ball when he's open. I'm not a big fan of keeping around project WRs with question mark upside (Marlon Moore, Patrick Turner, etc). If Binns was a blazer, YAC freak, or special teams contributor, it would be a different story.

For a 4th WR, give me Rishard all day over Binns...better hands, and can play multiple ST roles (returning, blocking, gunning).
